i was really dubious at first, when someone offered me a set of TSW alpines, images were cunjured up of fox racing generic 5 spoke rubbishness. i put them on the sierra, to save face, thinking, and was actually surprised at how nice they looked ;D , i think its the offset and tyre size more than anything.

mmm, not sure, how about painting them gunmetal grey, or a grey closer to the trim colour? +1

I think they look quite good as they are, everyones doing dark wheels as well.... keep em silver, they just look... smooth I suppose! The offset on the front looks spot on!

Think you'd be better off with Mondeo 5-Spokes tbh. Not too bad though, certainly not offensive by any means.

I quite like them. Think they suit the whole feel of the car. Leave them as they are.

The Mondeo 5 spokes and Cossie 5 spokes are dramatically different, the Cossie items are wider and a lot more dished.

Yes, the cossie rims are much more dished, these mondy wheels are "like" cossie rims.
